Sweet Twins novel Chapter 501

With a disdainful expression, Joseph raised an eyebrow. "Charles, you nag too much! I swear you're even more irritating than Grandpa."

"Is that so? Then, do you hate me, Joseph?" Charles changed the topic. His tone was stern yet full of concern.

The corners of Joseph's mouth twitched. There was no way that he could still forgive Charles. Joseph's rage boiled in his heart.

Charles could have at least kept his mouth shut about Anna's pregnancy with Derrick's child.

Instead, Charles made a fuss about it. Now, everyone knew that Derrick cuckolded Joseph!

"You simpleton!" Joseph revealed a furious look.

"I hate you and can never forgive you! Nonetheless, I'm also grateful. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know about Anna's pregnancy with Derrick's child," Joseph reluctantly said as he gritted his teeth.

"Well, you have nothing else to do now. Why don't you return to the TS Group? You can help me," Charles casually offered. Deep inside, he just wanted to trap Joseph by his side and prevent the latter from doing anything irrational.

"Let's talk about that later. I'm on my way to the hospital. Our grandfather and Derrick are in there." Fiddling with his mobile phone, Joseph read the articles about his disappearance. "According to the news, I'm still missing. Grandpa must be very anxious. I'll go to see him so that he can rest assured."

"Okay, I understand. Don't hesitate to call me if you want a job." Then, Charles turned around and headed for the hospital.

"Charles, don't you hate me for taking the TS Group from you? A few days ago, I visited your house with Anna. The little bitch even dared to fool around there!" With self-mockery, he added, "Anna has taken so many messy photos of you and Nancy. After all the troubles I've caused, you must hate me so much right now. "

"Joseph, sometimes you are intolerable. Your impatient attitude and foul language give headaches to everyone around you. Nonetheless, you're still my cousin. I can't just watch you go astray, right? At this moment, I just want to pull you up. Since we don't lack money, why do we have to fight? What do you think?" said Charles in a sincere tone.

However, Joseph remained indifferent. He snorted and kept silent.

Deep inside, Joseph had an understanding of his innate ability and temper. Although he had a talent for management, Joseph was not as good as Charles. A big company like the TS Group would be hard for him to control. As for his temper, Joseph preferred to be free and unrestrained. Sitting in an office for a whole day was no different from punishment.

As such, Joseph was relieved that Charles was there. At least, there was someone who could help him clean up his mess.

"I don't want to fight as well. All you need to do is work hard to make money for my living expenses. Then, I can be free chase after girls. That would be a great life for me!" Joseph callously said, resting his hands behind his head.

At that moment, Daisy's innocent face flashed across Joseph's mind.

"Don't sell yourself too short, brat. Have a higher opinion of yourself," Charles coldly said.

"You're growing up to be like Grandpa! Too much nagging!"

"Well, I think Daisy is a wonderful woman. If you can't move on from her, why don't you try to get her back?" Charles asked with furrowed eyebrows.

After years of observation, Charles thought that Daisy was a suitable wife for Joseph. At least, she could tolerate Joseph's immature behavior.

"There are so many women in the world. I have no reason to cling to only one girl." Joseph said in a scornful tone.

Feeling helpless, Charles shrugged his shoulders and rolled his eyes.

At that moment, their vehicle finally arrived at the hospital's parking lot.

When the car stopped, Joseph immediately opened the door and got out. "Charles, you go ahead to the company. I can handle this alone."

"Okay. Take care." Looking at Joseph's back, Charles felt somewhat uncomfortable. "Joseph, don't do anything stupid."

"No, I won't. Don't worry." Without turning around, Joseph walked towards the in-patient building. A confident expression painted his face.

Charles still had several appointments waiting for him in the TS Group. As such, he exited the parking lot and rushed towards the company.

Meanwhile, Joseph entered the elevator and headed to the floor of Frederic's ward. After a few minutes, Joseph finally reached Frederic's room. After composing himself, he opened the door.

The sight of Joseph made Frederic anxious. With a troubled expression, Frederic shouted, "You bastard, where have you been?"

"Grandpa, I've only been away for less than a day. Why are you so angry?" After a short pause, Joseph continued, "You didn't care where I went before. What's with the sudden change?"

"Yes, you're right. I didn't care where you went before. However, from now on, you will inform me where you are and where you will go." Frederic was aware that Derrick offended Joseph. Deep inside, Frederic was terrified that Joseph would do something stupid on impulse.

"Ha ha, Grandpa, calm down. I'm not going anywhere for now. Your humble grandson is here to serve you. Why don't you relax for a while?" Joseph revealed a wide smile. Then, he turned to Angelina and Hardy. "Am I right, Uncle, Aunt?"

"Enough already!" Angelina growled with a frown.

"Relax. Joseph is still a young man. We, adults, should take the initiative of understanding him. Don't talk so harshly, okay?" Hardy reminded Angelina as he patted her back.

"Well, Auntie does have a point. I've caused enough trouble. I don't want to continue to mess around. After long consideration, I've decided not to go anywhere and stay by Grandpa's side," Joseph said in a sincere tone.

"You brat! Let me tell you, no matter what Derrick has done, he is still your father. At some point, you need to forgive him. Anna is a bitch! Don't damage your relationship with your father just because of that evil woman!" Frederic had experienced a lot of things. As such, he had a rough idea of what Joseph was thinking at the moment.

"Don't worry, Grandpa. I've already vented my anger. I'll visit my father later," Joseph said with a warm smile.

"Yes, that's correct. Your father is a patient now. You are the only heir to all his property. You should go back now and take care your father's company. It is a difficult situation for them, and your assistance would be valued," Frederic advised in a concerned voice.

A while back, Frederic was hoping that Derrick could build another TS Group.

Unfortunately, Derrick let Frederic down in the end.

After the establishment of the company, Frederic heard that Derrick's group was merely a front. It turned out that Derrick mainly engaged in underground businesses.

Frederic was once afraid that Derrick would destroy Joseph. As such, Frederic wanted to take the opportunity of Derrick's illness to destroy his illegal businesses.

However, the company was still in operation. Frederic hoped that Joseph could go back and clean up the mess in the group. With luck, Joseph might steer the company into a legitimate business.

"Grandpa, I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter. My father's company is something I can't manage. I don't even know the main business of the group right now. My father doesn't even allow me to contact anyone from the company." Joseph was triggered when he heard the word "business." In the spirit of freedom, he didn't want to entangle himself with such meddlesome affairs.

"I understand. Well, then, you can stay with me for the time being," Frederic impatiently said as a sigh escaped his lips.

"Okay, I will listen to Grandpa. However, for the moment, I better visit your good son, my good father, Derrick." When he finished his words, Joseph stood up and walked out.

"Hardy, follow Joseph and watch him. Don't let that boy do anything irrational," Frederic nervously ordered as he swallowed a lump in his throat.

"Okay, I understand." Hardy stood up and rushed outside to follow Joseph.
